I had forgotten about the shooting of the bird on the album cover...it was blurred out on the copy we had. I loved the Grape.

Now that they have the rights to their name and music back, they should put out quality reissues for their LP's, unreleased and live material, etc. The demand has got to be there.

@MrKGHunter Месяц назад

I really wish they would. Been trying to get those last round of Sundazed reissues from 07 that go for hundreds of dollars. Damn that Katz for screwing them so bad. It’s a crime that the first album is so hard to find.

Bob was a soulful person and never crazy, he was in situations that he didn't want to.deal with! If the Bands downs weren't so continuous and deception haunting he and the rest of.the.band would have been at the top!

I totally agree with Peter when he states what he thinks of their recordings! Other than the first, none truly protrayed the talent of this.fantastic musicians! Grape deserved so much mor than they ever received! Skippy and Bob could not deal with all the hostillities and chaos of the management issues!

What Peter said about the ultra view of SF psychadelic rock as THE answer to life everafter was so correct. I thought being in our band in those days was fun, and had NO answers to anything EXCEPT fun and entertainment. The problem with adding drugs to the whole scene is they tend to make the musicians philosophers; zealots w/o knowledge, hypocrites as hippies.

That was an interesting, but hard listen. Peter jumps all over the place with his stories. Thx anyway. :)

I learned EVERY note on the first album. I was there at the Fillmore when the back cover photo was shot (big red balloon). The Moby Grape story makes me hate the music business. A true horror and pathetic nightmare. I did a record and tour with the first band signed to EMI America (Spellbound) and that spit me out of the music business permanently. Just the world’s most evil horrible people in the music business.
